British Court Rules Terminally Ill 2 Year Old’s Life Support to Be Turned off against Devastated Parents Wishes

13Reasons to believe that the child was improving

Mr Wolfe had met hospital officials a week earlier along with Tom Evans, the boy’s father to ask them to reconsider because they believed the child’s condition was improving but it somehow seems that the hospital has adopted a vindictive stance as if reviewing an appeal of a convict sentenced to death.

Woolfe was given a false assumption that the hospital was about to reconsider their decision and allowing Alfie to travel to a hospital in the Vatican for treatment but within an hour of the meeting, the officials contacted the high court to set a ruling on killing the child.

Termed the “Alfie Army”, tens of thousands of supporters rallied to campaign for the boy’s right to life. People from all over the world have sent messages of support to the parents.

Unfortunately, that won’t be the case. To sum up the present situation in MEP Woolfe’s words 'I beg them to give them the option of saving Alfie rather than pursuing this case today to end his life in the next few days”
